Empires Start with Lords

Chapter 45: : Fire Cloud Cult

Ross has been honestly staying in Green Forest for a while, waiting for the response from the royal family.

After all, if the royal family's special gunpowder can be obtained through this special channel, Ross's army's combat effectiveness can be increased by at least a quarter based on the current stage.

You know, gunpowder represents the source of damage for all hot weapons.

If it weren't for the gunpowder from a few decades ago, the Huaxia Empire would not have become the most powerful country in the mainland in such a short period of time.

However, Ross is still very satisfied with the fact that he can hold the thigh of the Aklan royal family.

It was an unexpected surprise. After all, he and the eldest prince, who could inherit the throne after a few years, had forged quite a lot.

Originally, Ross himself had no interest in the throne. He just wanted to develop the kingdom with peace of mind, so as to avoid Akram being destroyed and then being sent to the gallows.

However, Ross's elder brother, the eldest prince, did not let him go.

Ross was helplessly exiled here, a wilderness with few resources to make a fortune as a territory, surrounded by a bunch of orcs, goblins, and goblins, which are dangerous and hostile to humans.

If it wasn't for the help of the system, I'm afraid Ross would have died on the first day he came here.

However, not only has Ross not been as dead as the first prince expected these days, but instead he has run several commercial cities of considerable size, and has also laid down nearly 10,000 hectares of territory.

Although there are more than 3,000 hectares of territory, it is now being occupied by the original inhabitants of Marquis Raisel.

But Ross believes that at this point, people can't break away from themselves and build an inner-circulating city.

The food needs alone will not last for a few months.

In other words, the territory that Ross really owns now is more than 6,000 hectares.

These territories account for nearly one percent of the entire kingdom...

The Kingdom of Aklan, among the nine countries in the entire continent, belongs to the class with the least land and the most scarce resources.

Perhaps the only one under the Aklan Kingdom as a whole is the Tagle Kingdom.

However, although the Tagle Kingdom has no advantages, it is on the list of a powerful country like the Yamato Empire. It is natural that the current Aklan Kingdom is not comparable to the Yamato Empire's master who recognizes the thief as the father.

Then again, being born in such a small country, Ross's plan can be executed more quickly.

Take the throne and become the leader of the country.

Only in this way will the eldest prince not sacrifice the country, and Ross will have a much higher probability of survival.

If it wasn't for survival, Ross didn't want to be a lord at all. He just wanted to enjoy flowers and girls every day and live a relaxed and comfortable life.

However, in the face of this elder brother who has been with him for more than ten years, no one understands the ambition of the first prince better than him.

The eldest prince is an extremely impulsive person, and he is not suitable to be the heir to the throne at all.

Ross believed that the first day the eldest prince took the throne was the beginning of the end for the poor and commoners of the Aklan Kingdom.

When Ross thought of this, he was even more puzzled by the old king's every move.

You must know that the old king was more cautious by nature. Ross didn't know why the old king would favor the eldest prince again.

Now that's all right, the originally ample time has become more urgent.

Because the eldest prince is about to gain power, Ross needs to raise his territory to the highest level of the kingdom within a year, half a year, or even less time.

Not only that, the three giants, military, economic, and political, must be stable.

However, what troubles Ross the most is that a kind of theology has recently become popular in the city as expected.

This is the Christian culture that began to rise before the Middle Ages in Europe.

It stands to reason that if we look at the history of the earth, Ross's world should be around the middle of the sixteenth century.

However, the religious culture here is far from developed, but in recent years there has been a sudden momentum.

Although, since the beginning of the last century, religious culture has begun to emerge in this world, but they are undoubtedly severely suppressed by the Chinese Empire.

Facts have proved that the Huaxia Empire made a very conscious decision, created a series of humanities and academics, and removed representatives of various fields from the school, thus replacing the original bloodthirsty religious believers.

However, as long as there are still a minority of those who pursue the truth, religion cannot be permanently suppressed.

During this period of time, several waves of young and middle-aged people who claimed to be theologians in the city of Ross spread an idea everywhere in the city in the name of propagating the will of God.

This undoubtedly gave Ross a headache.

Because as far as he knows, religion is not just the scum of infidels who set fire to death. Religion has also played a positive role in human civilization.

but……

Within a few days, Ross immediately executed the group of believers who promoted theology.

Just because these guys collected high gold coins from civilians and sold something called Shenshui. After drinking it, more than a dozen civilians were poisoned to death.

"Hey, let's get rich first, and then make more plans."

Ross rubbed his temples. This kind of inadvertent trouble was a stumbling block on Ross's road to becoming a lord.

After a while~www.wuxiahere.com~ another knight came in and said, "Report to the lord, and another wave of Huoyun religious believers who claim to be the agents of the gods came to visit."

When Ross heard this, he just wanted to refuse, but suddenly he felt that this name was so familiar?

Snapped!

Ross patted the solid wood table and suddenly remembered.

In Akram Kingdom, isn't the most popular religion the Fire Cloud Cult?

Now, the Fire Cloud Sect in the Aklan Kingdom is the only ruling sect appointed by the royal family, and it has the highest administrative power second only to the royal family.

"Let them in!"

Ross said directly, after five minutes, more than a dozen middle-aged men in heavy white robes, as well as a few young people behind them, came in. There was a golden copper piece pinned to the middle of their clothes, which was exquisite The figure depicts a winged man stepping barefoot on a rock, then hugging the sun with his arms outstretched.

It was the first time Ross saw a religious man dressed in such gorgeous clothes.

However, Ross did not greet them with the ritual of facing religious believers, but performed an aristocratic ritual.

"Dear Lord and Earl, hello."

The middle-aged man at the head performed a Fire Cloud Sect etiquette and faced Rose with a smile.

"What's the matter, esteemed believer... sir?"

Ross forgot what to call him for a while, so he called him directly.

"It's too presumptuous! How can the president of the church be called a believer?!"

Several young people behind the white-robed middle-aged man indignantly reminded Ross of "kindness".

Ross only remembered for a while that the elder brother of the cultists, with a pattern and two stars on his chest, should be called the president.

The badge on the chest is the only proof of their status.
